A hail of deadly trebuchet shots rain down on a stronghold under siege in World vs World, a game mode that pits armies of hundreds of players against each other on vast maps.

Dont get too close to these grubs  they spit nasty acid!

This flaming fire imp is one of the many dangerous creatures travelers in Tyria may encounter.

A norn guardian casts the Tome of Wrath skill. This elite skill allows a guardian to summon a giant book, the Tome of Wrath, which provides him with 5 new skills that damage his opponents.
